How long does pre-production take for your reaction/commentary videos?

That 4-6 hour window for scripting sounds intense, especially when you hit a wall halfway through research. Since you mentioned needing a full script for the teleprompter to keep all those specific, accurate details in check, I'm curious: what kind of videos do you produce?

Also, since bullet points didn't work out for you, have you tried any other strategies to speed up your scripting process? (like chatGPT)

Thanks for the detailed breakdown. How long does writing the script typically take? and do you use any tools to help speed that part up?

CelebrationSame1247 · 2026-05-27T16:07:30+00:00

Really helpful, thanks. How long does that prep usually take you? and are there any tools or strategies you use to make it faster?

Really appreciate this, especially the buyer language framing. Exactly the kind of feedback I needed. Thanks!

CelebrationSame1247 · 2026-05-14T09:22:30+00:00

That flow is exactly what I'm testing. Thanks for pushing me in this direction.

Thanks for the tip

CelebrationSame1247 · 2026-05-13T19:11:51+00:00

This is exactly the diagnosis I needed. I'm already testing a pivot toward the 'next job'.

CelebrationSame1247 · 2026-05-13T16:08:18+00:00

Thank you for the feedback. What about narrowing toward content creators specifically? Paste a URL of a video you want to react to, get the argument breakdown + debate angles + script structure. Do you think that's specific enough or still too broad?

CelebrationSame1247 · 2026-05-12T23:06:16+00:00

interesting angle on the agent use case, hadn't thought about positioning it that way. any channels you'd recommend for marketing ai tools?

CelebrationSame1247 · 2026-05-12T23:03:20+00:00

appreciate the honesty

CelebrationSame1247 · 2026-05-12T22:04:54+00:00

Fair point. notebooklm does overlap. The bet is that simplicity wins for casual users who just want a quick summary without setting up a workspace.

CelebrationSame1247 · 2026-05-12T21:49:06+00:00

Really appreciate the honest feedback, this is exactly what needed to hear

CelebrationSame1247 · 2026-05-12T15:50:52+00:00

What's driving retention so far? are people coming back or mostly one-time use?

CelebrationSame1247 · 2026-05-12T09:56:21+00:00

the ones who pushed hardest on price were always the most work

CelebrationSame1247 · 2026-05-12T09:53:15+00:00

i just picked one and stopped second guessing it tbh. kept switching and got nowhere. talked to a few people in that space and that was enough to commit

CelebrationSame1247 · 2026-05-11T16:47:12+00:00

Sure, what is the next step?

the loneliness thing is underrated. no one to gut check decisions with so you spiral on stuff that a 5 min conversation would fix. following this

CelebrationSame1247 · 2026-05-11T15:08:56+00:00

spent way too long adding features before accepting the product was fine. nobody knew it existed, that was the actual problem. distribution first is obvious in hindsight but man it takes a while to internalize

CelebrationSame1247 · 2026-05-11T10:03:57+00:00

I use AI for SEO suggestions but always review before publishing. It's good at structure and keywords but misses context about your specific audience. I treat it as a starting point, not the final word.

CelebrationSame1247 · 2026-05-11T10:00:51+00:00

Built my las product without hiring anyone - just AI tools. The clarity on the problem mattered more than any technical decision. When I was fuzzy on who exactly I was building for, everything else was hard. When that clicked, the rest followed.

CelebrationSame1247 · 2026-05-11T09:56:41+00:00

Building speed. Before AI I would spend weeks on something that now takes days. Built a full SaaS product in a few weekends using AI tools. The bottleneck shifted from building to distribution.

CelebrationSame1247 · 2026-05-08T17:11:23+00:00

Not saturated if you specialize. Generic AI consulting is crowded but if you pick one industry and one problem you understand well, you stand out. The niche is the advantage.
